The Trade Desk reviews

I encourage you to see if the reviews provide examples to support them. If not you will see that 1) HR asked others to write the vapid statements or 2) they really can't provide proof because it's not true. Here are some details about the company culture, compensation, and work. The company runs on rumors. Many reviews have said something along the lines of being the best place they have worked, being around the most intelligent, curious, hardworking, and tenacious people. That is the kool-aid talking. You WILL be underpaid. If you read, the ones who said "decent" pay were the engineers. You WILL work long hours because everyone else does it. The work is not mentally stimulating. One fact, some people (plural) have spent their day trading on the stock market on a separate computer while working. That should tell you how challenging and stimulating the work really is. I get it. We all have to make a living even if it means having two jobs. "Rumors of pure tyranny and bullying (or poor work ethic) from our head of client services " True. You will interview and know what we are all trying to say as soon as you meet her. Be humble. You will also notice the negative ones have more likes because most of us are afraid to post this with the fear of having it traced and it's easier to just support than to voice anything.

1. There is a culture of micro-management, especially in client-facing roles. 2. Work-life balance is almost non-existant. 3. The company has a concerning cult-like culture. Some folks make their role in this company their entire personality. Kind of feels like a college fraternity sometimes. 4. Genuinely, your experience is going to largely depend on (1) what department you’re in and (2) who’s on your team. Employees who have been at the company longer are cliquey. In my opinion, the culture in internal-facing teams is healthier than that of client-facing teams. 5. Very low diversity in the company. There are also no employee resource groups, if that’s something you’re looking for. I have heard offensive comments from coworkers on a few occasions. 6. Lots of events with alcohol that are hard to avoid. You may get made fun of if you don’t participate. Not that it’s inherently bad to drink or anything, but if you choose to simply not participate, it will reflect negatively on you after a while.
